Note: Because of the pandemic, the policy is subject to change.

Time: Saturday, Oct 8th, 2022

Location: Winston Chung Hall @ UCR [Map]

Platform: CodeForces

We have both the on-site contest and simultaneously an online contest.

Only on-site participants can win prizes. The online participants may get special electronic certificates.
One week before the contest, we will have a practice contest to help the participants to get used to the website interface. See more details here.
You have to stay until the closing remarks (5:30 - 6:00 pm) to get the prizes. Dinner will be provided.

Contest Rules:

You need to use your own laptops. Both team members can use their own laptops.
You may use online resources during the contest, but you are not allowed to communicate with anyone (other than your teammate) about the contest.
Discussions between the teammates are allowed. Both team members can submit solutions. For a specific problem, the score for the team is the highest score from either team member.
Each problem has a set of test cases and a runtime limit.
Each problem has 10-20 test cases. Passing each test case (getting correct answer within time limit) will earn you a certain percentage of the points of the corresponding problem.
You may use any languages supported by CodeForces, including C++, C#, Java, Python, etc. The language supported is available here.
You can use the standard library for each language.
A problem’s runtime limit is automatically adjusted (see CodeForces Time Scaling). For example, the time limit for Python is 6x for that of C++. However, based on the usual performance of each language, using C++ is highly recommended.
